Cabin at Red River Gorge

For our holiday break this year we rented a cabin at Red River Gorge which is about an hours drive northeast of Georgetown, KY.
The cabin was located deep in the woods, and large enough to house 3 families (the Holt's, Allen's, and ourselves) for 3 nights and four days.
The highlight of our time spent in the cabin was our "pet" deer that felt right as home with all of us . . .
especially with the kids!
We enjoyed wonderful cooking as each family prepared a gourmet dinner and breakfast for everyone else.
Here was a typical lunch, which was just a free-for-all.
No vacation would be complete without some pampering. Brittney gave all us girls professional manicures.
We also had a great time just visiting 
and doing some serious "girl-talk"
(and man-talk!)
The kids enjoyed watching movies,
playing video games (and yes, I did say kids),
playing regular games like air-hockey,
playing fun group games. . .
like Spoons
(which got a little intense at times),
spending time in the hot-tub,
(who wouldn't want to be the only girl in the hot tub--I do think Christina is enjoying herself!),
the youngest group of hot-tubers,
shooting BB-guns at targets (made by Rex Holt, I even enjoyed doing some shooting myself),
exploring our beautiful surroundings,
and just spending time together as friends,
no matter how crazy we are!
This is what life is all about: enjoying God's beautiful creations, each other's company, and some much needed time away from the hustle and bustle of a hectic world!
